THE FUTURE OF POKÉMON IS PARALLELS 🌈

YES — I made the Charizard examples in Photoshop. They’re fake, so the RGB Mew deniers can relax for a second. 😏

But that’s exactly why I think parallels make so much sense for Pokémon — they got your attention.

From a production standpoint, Pokémon could keep the same card design and change the color treatment, foil layer, ink or finish to assign different rarities.

That gives collectors more versions to chase, makes certain cards feel more rare, and lets Pokémon add scarcity without constantly adding completely different cards to a set.

That’s why RGB Mew has had me so interested. I think it could be the first true Pokémon parallel. And if I’m right, these Charizard prototypes are exactly the type of cards I expect we could see in the near future.

Is this where the hobby is heading? Are special parallels the future? Sound off, Trainers. 🗣️
